Eduardo Kusdra & Terry Bozzio - Face to face (John McLaughlin's Shakti -

[@darrenengstrom3323]

Beautiful piece of music. The drums drove the song, the fretless bass provided a beautiful bottom end, and the guitar was melodic yet soulful. What fun to have written this song, to be part of the creative process.

[@michaelledford4751]

What a great composition from McLaughlin, I'm 72 yrs old & watched Miles Davis give birth to fusion ,of all the great fusion bands I saw in the 1970's only John McLaughlin with his Mahavishnu Orchestra were as consistently creative in writing complex yet beautiful pieces as Frank Zappa was ,the tour where Zappa used Mahavishnu as his opening act was mind blowing, each night John & Frank would push their bands to out perform each other ,my wife & I followed the tour through 5 states ,I'd give anything to have had the camera tech back then that we have now to capture those shows ,they all lie in Zappas vault collection ,unheard for 40 years .

[@eduardokusdra]

Hey Michael! You're a lucky man!! John and Frank are my heroes!! I saw John live many times. But in the last 25 years. Never got to see Mahavishnu live. Or Frank. My dream concerts: Frank Zappa, The Beatles & Mahavishnu. And yes... These cameras we have today would have been very handful back then... My best regards Michael!!!

[@JohanVanStarrex-qt1yz]

Miles didn't invent fusion.Listen to Larry Coryell's Spaces album from 1970 Mc Laughlin is a guest performer as are Billy Cobham,Chick Corea and Miroslav Vitous.This was before Mahavishnu Orchestra.Coryell was playing fusion music with Gary Burton in1967 Duster LP.

I am now more than ever convinced that MUSIC!!!!! is the purest expression of the human soul

[@alanmohn4146]

Not sure how this popped up on my feed but I'm happy it did. I now exploring your music on Spotify. Beautiful.

[@drummingnuts]

This is artistry!! Terry Bozzio is a drum set artist; painter; master of melody!! Also with fabulous technique to pull it off!!

[@DrewKane]

I love that fretless bass.

[@ervinlegall]

I come back to this almost every other month and I always hear something i haven't heard before.

[@douglasrowe4404]

Terry Bozzio graced them w his presence!

[@Mike383HK]

I don't care what anybody says!! From one drummer that loves and played this music, he's one of the best and most musical drummers ever!! Just perform The Black Page and then talk to me!!

[@jeffreyklaproth7794]

You guys sound good! Just keep practicing everyday and don’t get discouraged. If you stay focused, eventually with time, you’ll be able to play out somewhere in front of people. You guys are showing allot of potential, good luck! 😀

[@eduardokusdra]

Thank you for your advice, Jeffrey!

[@tednugentlives]

Maybe Join that School of Rock..ya know with the other kids..Drummer probably will get good after a few years..

[@douglasrowe4404]

[@michaeleagle2]

[@colmena1596]

[@K2shadowfax]

Epic!

[@DominicBurford]

Two musicians locked in and listening to each other whilst playing. Love this.

[@persianskeptic4814]

I still find myself coming back to this cover years after discovering it.

[@donsmith3857]

you know, you see terry kind of woodshedding on his kit and you think thats cool he's a great drummer and all but then you hear him with other musicians and it all comes together for you--truly one of the most amazing drummers ever

[@CalfeeTetra]

By far the most versatile drummer in the world. Terry can play to any type of music. He is simply BRILLANT!

[@johnboyle3297]

There are great modern drummers and then you have Mr Bozzio

[@genefogarty5395]

Good lord, I had to look closely because I though Terry's hi-hat was on a trigger, but no, that's just his incredible time keeping and stamina. Absolutely amazing.

[@jeffreycollins7297]

OMG this is so awesome. No one can play a fill like Terry.

[@lesterleland]

A troubled day cured by a fun listen.

[@drAgonflysix2]

This is music .

[@ronfrey5327]

Superb

[@NuOrder11]

That was amazing! Terry never disappoints!

[@JoolsyB]

Outstanding

[@planetzebulon21]

Got to see Terry play in the late ‘70’s, with some guy named Frank.

[@tikidrummerpoi]

That Radia ride sounds fantastic!

[@vernongriffin4832]

One of the best drummers in the world easily..

[@maxxs2804]

Arguably ... Numero uno

[@billkalivas9750]

Terry's tour with Zappa was out of this world😅

[@DominicBurford]

Could listen to them playing all day. Sheer perfection.

[@shaney8275]

So, so glad I stumbled across this. Fan of Bozzio and McLaughlin for a long time, Mr. Kusdra's take on this is just incredible. Beautiful in every way. Definitely looking into more of your music.

[@frankalfar]

The Mr. Bozzio uses the snare off reminds of Trilok Gurto, btw Terry now plays his set as if its a melodic instrument all its own w micro melodies both skin ones and metal ones, this is a joy!!!!!!

[@RustyTonesJr]

I saw Trilok with John McLaughlin and Bozzio with his DW kit, both standing back stage. Not the same show of course. It was killer. :)

[@janetmobilia9572]

[@robertpatterson3406]

Terry with all those drums, he could play for days and never hit the same drum twice .

[@sharethefootage1088]

That would imply an infinite number of drums, which is probably what it feels like when you're loading them into your Pinto hatchback for your next gig!

[@ullo1009]

Super !!
